PROGRAM
The assessment evaluates the data-driven skills you use every day that are critical both at work and in your business program. The
assessment is composed of three sections: Integrated Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, and Quantitative Reasoning, totaling 40 questions. The
scale for each section of the assessment is 0 to 20. The total scale ranges from 100 to 200, and all three sections are equally weighted in
determining your total.

Whatever you do to one side of an equation, do the same thing on the other side:
• Add/subtract the same number
• Multiply/divide both sides by the same number
Postulates:
• a=a
• a=b is the same as b=a
• If a=c and b=c then a=b
• If a=b
• a+c = b+c
• a-c = b-c
• ac=bc
• a/c =b/c
• If a=b then you can substitute a in the place of b anywhere that b appears in an expression
Translate into an equation and solve: Two times the quantity of six less than a number
equals the opposite of the number.
Solve each pair of equations to find the intersection point and then graph them to
confirm that they intersect here:
x+y=1
2y – x = 8
y – 3x = 3
y + 2x = -2
5x – 2y = 12
3x + 2y = 4
2y – x = 12
4x + y = -3
